A hint of fall is in the air and it's about time that we Drupalistas got together. The crew at Sony has graciously offered up a conference room for us. They've also just launched the new MusicBox website, so there should be a bit to talk about there. Of course, Drupal 6 Beta 1 has just made its debut. Hopefully, some of the hackers out there can give us the skinny on it.
The format of this meet-up will be totally self directed. We'll decide on what to talk about at the beginning and then break off into groups based on mutual interests. At the very least, we should probably break into a programming group for those interested in coding modules and core, and a design/business group for people interested in making Drupal pretty and doing non-programming stuff with the Drupal framework.
The Meetup will take place Tuesday, September 25th at 6:30 PM in the 9th Fl. conference room at 555 Madison Ave. We will break around 8:30 PM and head over to Cassidy's, a local restaurant/bar that has decent food and drinks.
Please add your name and the name of any guests you might bring to the sign-up wiki just below this post.

gah
Its not that I don't want to show up, its more that I'll still be in Barcelona at that point. (Course, I'll be there or elsewhere till around the 8th, so don't wait for me). Best of luck with it though!

Let's talk about 6, baby :)
(it's the song, jk)
I was wondering if anyone
I was wondering if anyone who is planning to attend the meetup has worked on integrating Facebook with Drupal (or vise versa)? I think this would be an interesting topic to give a lightening talk on at this meetup, or maybe an expanded version at the next.
Thanks,

drupal ninja
This top would definitely be a topic for a group of Drupal ninjas (code writers). I'd love to hear their ideas of integration and expectations. As it stands the most common drupal/facebook integrations deal with logins and login verification. Hopefully our NYC group can lay down the roadmap and we can see who's skills fit what's expected from such an application.
Canada meetup (Toronto/Vancover?) had faceBook
There is a video of a meet-up where someone who did interface drupal with FaceBook(not just login) spoke. It was rather recent (last 15-30 days) and was based in Canada.
Groups about specific topics
I like the idea of forming groups around these specific topics. It makes more sense than breaking into the generic groups, as long as there is enough interest.
Facebook video
Here's a link to that video for those that may be interested.
